Verdict

Scarlet Seymour, who runs in the previous race, had Alhaajeb and Moving in the places when scoring here a fortnight ago. Colin Keane retains the ride on the runner-up but Kevin Manning takes over on Brendan Duke's charge and the tables could be turned. DR PATRICK attracted very strong support two weeks ago but couldn't quite peg back stable companion Clueless Hill. Compensation awaits here though Boasty has dropped to a winnable mark and was only beaten a length last time. Sam Missile has two Kempton victories to his credit but hasn't won since scoring over 2m at Ascot in May 2018.
